Re: Extra set of DR barrels

Quote:

8 x 68 may not be a good idea for a couple of reasons.

1) It is a rimless round.

2) It is a relitivly high pressure rimless round. (roughly the metric equilivent of a .338 win mag)

I have nothing whatsoever against conversions, but that on a 20G CZ would have me moving to the other end of the range.

In your location 30-40 would be nice and safe.

220 grains @ 2200 is not to be sneezed at. Factory loads are availible for regulation and 30 cal barrels are plentiful even new take offs second hand.

This would probably be my foult as i wrote 8x58jrs instead of the proper 8x57jrs and it was then taken for the 8x68s, i love the later to but only as a bolt gun.
